won't anybody think of the pampered first worlders that will happily murder innocent people before standing up to their own government.

Trump even observed a minute's silence on his golf course, he had to concentrate before the shot

Only? Damn what a bummer. But at least they died for what they believe in: satanic zionist pedo fascism.

On the plus side, fascist militaries pretty much always understate their losses, so this is more of a "bare minimum that cannot possibly be spun as training accidents or ATV crashes." The zionist army has supposedly only lost like 50 guys in Lebanon despite 3 new videos a week of an IDF squad or tank getting hit by Hezbollah fpv drones

Unlike the age of Vietnam, people today aren’t going to be moved by these numbers. Not til they’re much much larger than Vietnam’s. What they are going to care about is now that the bond market is finally beginning to slap the knuckles of investors, interest rates are going to explode, and mortgage payments/rent are going to become a problem for a huge swath of Americans who thought they could simply ignore politics.

With all the manipulations and insider trading as of late I'm not sure the market can dictate anything anymore. It seems to me it is being kept artificially high for the time being, as it should be much, much lower. So, yeah, everything is broken and judging worth or value from a nebulous, ancient stock market is a fool's errand. The latest grift is getting most of the normal citizenry to play the markets on their websites. Sounds very unserious and lottery like.

And a shit ton of rubes are about to invest in a company with minuscule profits but a 2 trillion dollar valuation, more than the entire gdp for the US. A shit ton of people are gonna lose their asses before the price drops to something more realistic, and by then the wealth transfer to musk will already have happened.

Hmm...also by then enough white south africans will have immigrated to the good old usa and the Muskvasion will be complete.

[–] booscience@beehaw.org 5 points 19 hours ago

That’s the plan, but hilariously the majority of the first wave of SA immigrants moved back because they said the US was too expensive and too crime ridden. They also didn’t like the grind culture and lack of third spaces. Like yeah, welcome to hell, assholes, hope you enjoyed your stay. Now git!
